Fish and Friends

Meeting to say goobye to ==beatrizd" before leaving the country, to move to a far far away place (I'll write an article about it), was the perfect opportunity to use my "Diana F+":http://shop.lomography.com/cameras/diana-f-cameras/diana-f-cameras with its "20mm Fisheye Lens":http://shop.lomography.com/cameras/diana-f-cameras/diana-f-accessories/diana-20mm-fisheye-lens, and a black and white "120mm film==":http://shop.lomography.com/films/120-film!

It was August, the hottest day in summer, the sun was shining and people were almost dying! But if I’ve learn anything about my Diana F+, it is that it needs light! So, it was the perfect day to use it and enjoy taking photos with my friends!

This event could not be called anything other than Fish & Friends! I want to show you a part of the city of Logroño, Spain. I hope to show you more things about it soon! All my favorite locations!

For the first time, I can say that I’m completely satisfied with the photos! I love each of them, except the one which was overexposed. The rest are perfect; even the underexposed one is funny! The bad? The lab scanned the negatives near the fisheye circle! It could have been better! Anyway, as it is, I already like it!

In the week preceding the elections for the European Parliament, several political rallies were held in Como. As with all other public events in my city I documented one of these rallies, this time using a Russian film camera Zorki 6 loaded with a black and white film roll. Take a look!

Lomography is very excited to collaborate with One Must Dash, a interior accessories duo that creates posters, tote bags and accessories all in glorious bold black and white. Grab the opportunity to win One Must Dash posters, tote bags and a Diana Mini Petit Noir. Read on for contest details.

This is tribute to the Farm Security Administration photographer, Jack Delano, and his photographic series dedicated to barkers. For this article, I chose a series of photos I took this year at the traditional Easter Fair in my city, Como, using a classic rangefinder camera loaded with a roll of black and white film.

My list of resolutions for 2015 consists of 12 projects, one for every month. March was for caffenol. You have probably heard of the amazing fact that you can develop black and white photos with coffee, sodium, and vitamin C. I had tried this before but with less than stellar results. Somehow, there's always something going wrong. Time to devote a few rolls to caffenol to finally get the hang of it.

I love the different styles of cameras that Lomography has, but I also like to create my own cardboard cameras that use pinholes to be able to take pictures using traditional film. This time I created the Pinhole F, a camera inspired by the Diana F+ and shoots 12 pinhole photos using 120 film.

Exactly seven years ago, I bought this camera from Indonesia's local Lomography community. I remember having some savings in my bank account and just spending it all on this camera. At that time, I browsed the microsite for the Lomography Fisheye No.2 and immediately fell in love with it! Coincidentally, my friend who introduced me to Lomography just bought this same camera for his birthday. My life has changed ever since I had the Fisheye, my first lomographic camera.

Summer is full of color so using black and white film might not be the first thing that comes to mind. Yet the summer sun works out beautifully on black and white film. Like to give it a try? I've come across the best light at the train station during rush hour!

Lomography UK was lucky enough to test an LC-A 120 prototype in store and it was glorious! We used colour and black and white film to capture the camera at its finest. It was everything you would expect from the LC-A but in full frame 38mm f/4.5 120 film. It's LOVE.

Last Sunday, the local rugby team Rugby Como played the first match of the 2014-1025 season. Rugby is my favorite sport to photograph, and for some years I've been documenting almost every home match of this young team. This time I used a 1959 Zorki 5 camera with a vintage 1958 Industar-50 lens loaded with a timeless film, the Ilford HP5+ developed in a century-old developer, the mythical Rodinal. Take a look after the jump!
